Tomorrow, September 30, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, DHBC is honoured to launch DELIGHTFUL DOWNTOWN at Grafton Park, with a special event at 7 p.m., that will include the premiere of the Mi’kmaq History Month Light Show. This special light show will be DELIGHTFUL DOWNTOWN at Grafton Park’s first of many vivid productions.

The Mi’kmaq History Month Light Show was designed in partnership with the Mi'kmaw Native Friendship Centre, Mi'kmaw musician Raymond Sewell (@rockinawesome1), Nick Iwasko of Wasko AV (@waskoav), and the Halifax Regional Municipality (@hfxmoments). Tomorrow’s event at Grafton Park is open to the public and starts at 7 p.m. The event will feature designated speakers, and drumming and song from MNFC.
